    Recall update refused!

    Called my preferred local dealer and gave them my VIN, service advisors response was "That Taycan has no open recalls, we can't help you." I'm not even going to bother calling others. Haven't had an issue yet, hopefully that doesn't change.

    Confused About Home Charging

    I was having similar trouble with profiles, and a few members here suggested I use a timer only, no profile. It has been working perfectly. Set a timer with your target SOC (mine set to 80%), and the timer for the end of your discounted rates (mine set to 5:30AM). The car will estimate when it...

    PMCC - Overheated

    Confirmed the 6-50 pigtail is 10AWG, as is the 25ft cable. Also noticed that the J1772 connector is rated 250V/41A.

    PMCC - Overheated

    I sympathize with your concern and applaud you for taking this up with PCNA. Will check my 6-50 cord for you tonight to see what AWG it is, I assume it's 10 also. I have a decent knowledge of UL files and standards via my career, albeit a completely different industry. I went into the UL...

    PMCC - Overheated

    Some light reading for you: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/nema-14-50-supply-cable-heat-data.1940/ TLDR: The 10 AWG cord is not optimal at 40A, but it is electrically safe.

    Joy and headache of charging in warmer weather

    NEMA 6-50, 6AWG to 50A breaker, PMCC with no cabinet. Barely warm when pulling 40A, never thrown an error. 90F+ here this week. Maybe those with trouble should consider a switch to NEMA 6-50 and see if it helps.

    Wouldn’t it be nice to have an instant electric consumption display… analogous to the indicators on some ICE cars ?

    You’ll notice Porsche doesn’t provide instant consumption on any of their ICE cars either. I find it refreshing compared to BMW and others that have multiple displays and menus with overanalyzed efficiency data.

    Taycan 4S Spoiler Deployed Speed

    I tried range mode once and noticed an indicator on the instrument cluster that showed it was raised. Haven't ever seen that in normal mode, or maybe I just haven't noticed. I think it may deploy sooner in range mode.

    Ride quality depending on chassis height?

    I notice it's a little firmer in low, like you say probably due to reduced travel. Really marginal difference though, still rides excellent overall. I find I can only activate lift at 20mph or less which is fine for my needs.

    Reverse Camera - Undistorted View?

    Agree, its very hard to judge with the fisheye, and when you change it to the other view it's really no better.

    Watch collectors - let's talk watches here!

    Have a few others but these two seem to get all the wrist time for the last couple years. Glad I got them before things got stupid!

    Preferred Charging Times Being Ignored?

    As As you can see from my OP, my profile/timer combos were causing charging at random times, outside of what I specified. I understand their purpose, and how they "should" work in combo, but my reality was a haphazard charing schedule. Very likely a bug.

    Preferred Charging Times Being Ignored?

    I'm going to do just the 6AM timer tomorrow which I believe will work well enough for my purposes.

    Preferred Charging Times Being Ignored?

    So I did what was suggested by @NC_Taycan , no profile and just timers for 6AM and 8AM. And it worked, until it didn't! The car didn't start charging till 4AM, and charged to 80% SOC right around 6AM. Great! But then it randomly continued charging after 6:30AM until I realized and cancelled it...

    Preferred Charging Times Being Ignored?

    I’ll give that a try. Thanks

    Preferred Charging Times Being Ignored?

    Thanks guys, at least I don’t feel stupid now. Hopefully a software update will address this.
